Perhaps the greatest I consider a cure for love and jealousy more important tubere than a cure for cancer, sis or pneumonia d d That's undeniable and peace than misery and of misery a lot more Love But love b trouble. The misery and trouble the for For everything we get in life, we pay a price—nature's full price, to the last cent. There is no escaping the pay- ment. And love is no exception oes Cause ngs far joy are price we pay for love Why is it necessary for love to cause misery as well a joy, aside from the “nature price” idea? This is the an swer: There can be ao emotion except by contrast Fire would not be pleasingly attractive if we did not undergo cold for contrast. The warmth is the escape from the discomforts of cold. Wealth is most keenly enjoyed when we have a back- ground of poverty and struggle to make us appreciate the good things of life that are brought by riches. And love would not bring as much joy if it did not also at times bring misery such as jealousy and “losing out.” The love during youth—‘puppy love’—brings excru- ciating disappointment, heartache and melancholy. It's because of this suffering that “the first love” lingers in nemory—by contrast. The average person experiences several affairs of the heart before he or she finds “the right one.” “If the right one is really found, very little heartache is mixed with it. And it is appreciated because the experience of the past exists for comparison. After all, we have trouble to make us appreciae joy to its limit. All life is a succession of contrasts. We could not appreciate glorious sunshine and gentle breezes if we | didn’t have storms for contrast. Speed 4¢TT SEEMS but yesterday” when we were marveling at the ultra-rapid camera of the movie studio, making 300 exposures a second. « A Frenchman perfects 4 camera making 25,000 pictures a second. It discloses strange things. One, for instance, is that a soap bubble, hit by a paper wad, admits the wad, closes the hole it made, and does not burst until the pro- jectile emerges on the far side. Such scientific toys, useless at first, usually become a practical part of daily life eventually. Prospects Quite Remote OW WATCH the spellbinders play politics with the | conclusions of that conference of allies. “Of particu- lar interest to the president,” says a Plymouth (Vt.) dis- patch, “was the prospect of collecting some six billion dollars of war debts owed the United States by France, Italy and Belgium.” The voter will please hear those six | billions rattling in Uncle Sam’s pocket, put there by Coolidge. Of course, this will require strong imagination; | but then, you have to let the imagination work in politics. Futile | HE LAKUTA tribe, living along the upper Nile in | Africa, wants rain.
